Neutral Protease NP-2000

A high concentration protease that can attenuate the dough strength, enable a desirable elasticity and handling property, shorten mixing time, improve color and shininess of the finished products, enables uniformity and stability of crumb structure, improved flavor and taste of baked products.

Product Specifications

DESCRIPTION

NP-2000
is a food grade Neutral Protease powder preparation produced from non-genetic
modified strains of Bacillus subtilis through submerged fermentation, extraction and refining process. It can catalyze
hydrolysis of proteins in neutral environment to produce peptide and amino
acids.

NP-2000
has been specially designed for the application in baking industry.

PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS

Declared Enzyme: Protease

EC Number:EC 3.4.24.28

Appearance: Pale brown Powder

Activity: 200,000 U/g (minimum)

Moisture: 8% (Maximum)

EFFECT OF PH

NP-2000
is stable at pH from 6.5 to 7.5. For maximum activity, the optimal pH range is
6.8 to 8.0 at 37°C. Inactivation of NP-2000 can be
achieved quickly at pH below 5.0 or above 9.0.

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE

NP-2000
is stable at temperature below 37°C at pH
from 7.0 to 8.0. It is unstable at temperatures above 45°C and inactivated quickly
at temperatures above 60°C. The optimal temperature for NP-2000 is about 50°C
by using 0.5% casein as substrate at pH around 7.2.

enable a desirable
elasticity and handling property, and shorten mixing time

2) Improve color and shininess of the finished
products

3) Enable an even crumb structure and crisped taste
of biscuits and crackers

4) Increase the content of polypeptide and amino
acid in the dough, thus improve the flavors of baked products

PACKAGING, STORAGE &
SHELF-LIFE

NP-2000
is packaged in 25kg cardboard drums with food grade
plastic bags inside or water-proof kraft paper bags. Customized
packaging is also available upon request.

Typical
shelf-life is six months if this product is stored below 25°C in its original packaging, sealed and unopened,
protected from direct sunlight. Its shelf-life will be twelve months provided
this product is stored properly at 0∼10°C.
NP-2000 has been formulated for optimal stability. Prolonged storage and/or
adverse conditions such as higher temperatures may lead to a higher dosage
requirement, and therefore should be avoided.

SAFE HANDLING OF ENZYMES

Inhalation of enzyme dust and mists should be avoided. In
case of contact with skin or eyes, promptly rinse with water for at least 15
minutes. For detailed handling information, please refer to the Material Safety
Data Sheet.
